San Francisco is a unique and breathtaking City. Built on a series of hills that offer memorable views of the San Francisco Bay and Pacific Ocean, the City offers visitors much more than just the great Golden Gate Bridge.

Lake Tahoe is the largest, most beautiful and pristine alpine
lake in North America. The California/Nevada state line runs

Lake Tahoe is in California, while the Tahoe Township of Douglas
County, Nevada is just across the state line. Together,
they comprise the community of Lake Tahoe, South Shore, with
a combined population of about 40,000.
